Wheels/Tires with Cognito 4-6

[TexasRedNeck]

Guys, considering dropping my truck from a 12 inch lift to a cognito 4-6.

I have Weld Cheyenne 20X10s. Can I use these wheels and what tires would look best with that lift and wheel?

I'm concernd that the Cognito kit has long spindles and I am not sure of the back space, but I think it is 4.5 or 25mm offset, right? Will they interfere with the spindles?

Thanks. Just trying to figure out the options.

I would run a nitto 420s street tire. 305 50r 20. Light setup if you don't go off road

Thanks. I need to check the load rating. Plan on towing a 5th wheel and the weight will be a factor.

It's around 3050. Should be plenty but check nittos site

I ran 305 55 20 (33.2) w/lift right around 4in and flat cv angles. Just trimmed the front lower valance a little. No other clearance issues. Wheels were 20x9 w/ 5in backspacing 0 offset.

I believe Cognito lift allows greatest backspacing up to 5.5". My rockstars, 20x8" had 5" backspacing. Couldn't run a Tuff/Ruff Country lift.

You can clear 37's but torsion bars would be maxed out. I recommend 35's and cranked half-way to level. Running 2.5" rear blocks.

My 20x10 fuels have a 5" back spacing and clear my tuff country

Any tire brand/tread recommendation? I don't intend to drag race and I will take it down some country dirt roads and some light off roading as well as mainly on road with some towing.

Mickey Thompson Atz's are great. Also Toyo AT's and MT's.

I have the cognito 4-6" with 22x10.5 BMF Rehabs and Nitto 285/55/22 Trail grapplers.

You should be fine as far as your spindle concern goes.

Cornell, thanks for the note. What level do you have the Cognito set at? Do you have rub on the front? That looks tight

Old truck, Going to to something similar with new one too

It's set at 5" No rubbing up front. Just had to trim the splash guard a little on the front and back, nothing major.

35 x 13.5 or 325/60R20

Toyo Open Country AT are great, wear and ride well.

I still like the procomp xtreme a/t in 35 x 13.5 x 20 as well.

Jesseh72- This truck was my desktop for months. I have an 03 lb7 ecsb and someday it will look like yours. The stance is PERFECT. I saw when you had it listed for sale and I still regret not buying it. Pretty sure somewhere you said it was a zf6 too! awesome!

Thanks man it did have a zf6 and I regret selling it haha. Here is a older pic of my new one. Cognito 4in w/ 305 55 20. Now it has flight fab traction bars and nfab bars that are not in the pic.
